Try assigning the tape name to a variable and execute the command..
Something like
# td='\\\.\Tape0'
# nsrmm -s <server> -f "$td"

Frustrating.
I'm trying to write a script which will run on one of our Unix servers
to recycle tapes on a Windows NetWorker Server. However, I can't pass
the \\.\Tape0 across correctly.
At present, the closest I can get is to do something along the lines of:
nsrmm -s <server> -f \\\\\\\\.\\\\Tape0 to try to pass the correct
device name. If I echo that string on the Solaris server from which
I'll be running this script it comes back as \\.\Tape0, but it doesn't
seem to get picked up by the remote system that way. Naturally, the
remote server stores this name as \\\\.\\Tape0, but even the appropriate
\\\\\\\\.\\\\Tape0 or maybe
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\.\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Tape0 doesn't allow me
to address this drive.
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Any clues?
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Cheers,
\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\Stuart.
